The Saginaw Spirit have traded Russian forward Ivan Telegin to the Barrie Colts in exchange for three draft picks, loosepucks is reporting: Mississauga's second-round pick in 2012, London's third-round pick in 2013 and a conditional seventh-round pick in 2013.

The move frees up one of Saginaw's two spots for imports on its active roster, opening the door for them to use one of their two selections in Wednesday's CHL Import draft.
